Vee,
Which school did you formerly train at? I technically trained at the school in London, but I was actually attending the school in Oxford Michigan. The instructor was actually a pretty cool guy, but I think he was so far in that he couldn't see what was going on around him.

This guy is a keeper! Give him all your money at once and keep in mind those destinations he travels to might even have a few martial arts around after the pig roast and the few odd tokens given out at the Shaolin Temple. What a guy.

These guys just scream fraud. The master key seminar costs $500 and sensei platt just plays 12 hours worth of tapes on a conference room and gives a brief summary after each 1 hour video. It was boring as hell and for $15 you can buy the book The Master Key which was far more informative. Their fees are really high and things were really weird when all of these long standing members just disppaeared 1 by 1 with nothing positive to say about cmac. cmac is a cult

I had heard, or rather read, on the internet, that the Master Key System was anti semetic. I had never really spoken to someone about it, until years later. What I was told was that during the Master Key thing, Platt randomly said "The only people who weren't in the World Trade Center, when it fell, were the Jews"...

LOL.

I ain't kidding, and the guy who told me had a dan ranking there, until he left.

The fees for everything in the CMAC were were pretty ridiculous. My monthly tuition was only about 50 usd a month, but CMAC membership was a few hundred a year on top of that. I had to pay 200 usd for my blackbelt test with my teacher in Michigan, but then I found out that I also had to go to Toronto for the "official" test which was going to cost me close to 1000 usd. There was no way I could afford that as a college student working part time as Subway, so I quit a few months before I was scheduled to go.

I visited CMAC dojo in Toronto Beaches.
The salesmen who met me said he had trained at the Shao-lin temple. Evasive about his actual training, he had no idea knew his teacher and his teachers teacher since they were beginners.
I was embarrased for him.
Platt continues his 'skirting the law' at least non-ethical sales procedures....... C Mac should be studied as a "what to avoid in Canada" scenario.

That's funny, because I saw something from the Canadian courts in regards to this guy amd the Beaches Dojo. Turns out he is well known in Canada for strong arm tactics and bilking dojo owners out of their dojo and cash.

Here's the thread on MT by the instructor that they took that Dojo from.
